Re: Japan Lure Shop

Stuff gets delivered very quickly, if it’s in stock and ready to ship, when it’s out stock it’s a different story. They use FedEx Air for now.

Re: Dep evoke zero

OK! Thank you gents!
I may pick size 120 for our generally small bass in GA public lakes.
150 is way too big.

Re: New Poison Ultima / New Daiwa Steez rods

New Steez rods match the new Poison Glorious line up. The Ultima series matches Daiwa Racing design series. For every Ultima I bought I paid ~$700 plus shipping from Japan.

Re: Lightest and least viscous bearing oil for BFS reels?

I switched to Glitch Japan, high quality product.
Some Japanese Pro use this oil too.

Surprisingly, nobody knows about it on this forum.
Green and red are ultra low viscosity.

Anyone know the weight of The Sensor?
Join to the question.
P.S. Does anybody know why Daiwa US don't have weights of the any rods they sell in US?
Daiwa Japan do have all of them in grams.

Well that's awesome, i never knew Berkely had titanium spinnerbaits, and pretty cheap too. Do you happen to have a site where these can be purchased for a decent price? I checked a few Japanese sites and couldn't find them on sale.
I bought them at Rakuten Japan in 2020.

Re: Shimano Poison Ultima Baitcasting 1610L-BFS

I own the rod, however I would rate it 5-16g and ML, using mostly for skipping 5" Senkos and other plastics with 0.26mm fluorocarbon line.

What chatterbaits are you using? Some of the cheaper Z-man ones have awful hooks that need a lot of touching up.

Re: Reeling Demographics... are you a righty or lefty

Don’t recall, if I already wrote in this thread, anyway, I can reel with any hand, however, I always hold my rod or cast with my dominant and most accurate hand, which is right, because of that - I reel with my left, I’m not going to switch a rod between hands, which is stupid, because sometimes fis...

I think that could be what started started or sped up the export boom of JDM tackle. Interest in bass fishing is declining, and saltwate...
